Updated when I got up this morning. Working GREAT! The only issue has to do with Cortana. The microphone on Mrs. p6’s HP laptop seems to not have been ever set up properly.

Edge is lean and fast! writing on the browser screen works with the mouse.

Haven’t tried Hello yet.

Everything else is working as it should.

Today at 2pm Eastern Windows Weekly will have a Windows 10 Cyber party via https://twit.tv/shows/windows-weekly
I expect to see issues addressed there.

“The immediate revenue hit from the ‘free’ strategy is unlikely to be large, as Microsoft gets no more than $500 million of its $20 billion or so annual Windows revenue from upgrades, analysts have said.

The vast majority of Windows revenue comes from hardware makers installing it on new PCs and businesses paying for multi-year licenses.”

And when hardware manufacturers sell fewer machines due to the free upgrade there will be significant erosion in that revenue stream as well.

This will be a disaster for Microsoft on many levels.

So far so good. I don’t have any complaints.
